I didn't have this problem but my brother and his friend did. They rented from a well known rental company in town. They were college students, but very quiet and they kept up the house. Not party people. They let their landlord know they were having some issues with the heat. It wasn't working. They refused to look at it, it was the dead of winter and they were not allowed to use electric heaters! Then they started having electrical problems. They went in and told the landlords and they said they were just college students that didn't know anything! Later my brothers friend was cooking and had a pan on the stove and it electrocuted him and put a huge hole in the thick metal pan! They still would not do anything so they got the campus involved and threatened a lawsuit, and they went and fixed it reluctantly!

They moved out as soon as their lease was up, the house burnt down because of electrical problems 3 months after they left! If you are a college student make sure the landlords treat you with respect and you ask other tenants about the company!
